Aug 24, 2015 at 11:11 comment added Lasse Rempe Another situation that comes to mind is the convergence of families of unicritical polynomials, parameterised as $z\mapsto (1+z/d)^d+c$, to the exponential family $z\mapsto e^z+c$. The convergence seems "dynamical" in a certain sense. There is an old preprint by Devaney-Goldberg-Hubbard, now published in two parts with additional co-authors. Also, additional results in a similar spirit by Kriete, Krauskopf and others; see arxiv.org/abs/0910.0743 by my former student Helena Mihaljević-Brandt. However, I am not sure this "dynamical convergence" has ever been fully formalised as a concept.
Aug 21, 2015 at 13:55 comment added Giraffro This seems like the right concept, although I'm probably asking for something weaker than being 'locally topologically conjugate'. But this is a nice direction to look in. Thank you!
Aug 21, 2015 at 13:42 comment added Lasse Rempe Of course, there are situations where you may not have structural stability, but still have "dynamical convergence" along certain sequence. For example, as pointed out below, the Julia set of a quadratic polynomial is not continuous at c=1/4. However, if you approach through the interval $c\in (0,1/4)$, then the Julia sets will converge (and the maps are even topologically conjugate on the Julia set - where they are topologically just the doubling map on the circle).
